Article 53300 of comp.sys.cbm: From: aa349@cleveland.Freenet.Edu (Howard Herman) Newsgroups: comp.sys.cbm Subject: Commodore FTP Sites for May 1996 - Last Rev: 01May96 Date: 1 May 1996 05:31:07 GMT Organization: Case Western Reserve University, Cleveland, OH (USA) Lines: 520 Message-ID: <4m6sus$668@madeline.INS.CWRU.Edu> Reply-To: aa349@cleveland.Freenet.Edu (Howard Herman) NNTP-Posting-Host: owl.ins.cwru.edu Last Change/Update: 01 May 1996 =================== A +++ before an entry indicates that the entry is new, or has been updated, or has changed, since the last Listing. A --- before an entry indicates that the _prior_ entry was removed from the list, since the last Listing. =================== This is the list of FTP sites containing software and programs specific to the Commodore 64 and 128 computers, and one Vic20 site, as well as one for the PET. When available URL addresses are also listed, for alternate access. I will try to keep this list as current and accurate as possible, so that it can be a useful resource for users of the newsgroup. PLEASE cooperate and send E-mail with any corrections and updates. If you uncover a site not listed, tell me so that it can be added. If a site has closed or no longer carries CBM software, let me know and it will be deleted. ===== To use this list on a UNIX system, just type 'ftp ', where is any of the Host or FTP sites listed below. Use 'anonymous' as your login, and your E-mail address for the password. You can change and list directories with 'cd' and 'dir', respectively, and download files to your system using 'get'. Be sure to specify either 'binary' if you are getting a program, or 'ascii' for a text file before you begin the download. ===== In addition to the sites listed below, which have CBM software, there are hundreds of other FTP sites on INet with interesting files covering most every other topic imaginable. Take some time to seek out and explore these other sites and their files too.
